Rhodium vs Gold AC connectors

hi Audiolabyrinth.
I would try FI 52 Rhodium instead of FI 50.A 20 amp plug should be more suitable for your amp.At least that's my impression.Cheers.Raf

Thankyou TBG, I believe I will do the 20 amp plug, it is awkward looking, it has a side ways connector blade on it, any 20 amp wpo will accomidate this type blade configuration though, do you believe the 20 amp plug allow's for more current?

yes, I will Take your and TBG's advice, however, there is a big cost difference, the furutech FI-50 is $295.00 and the FI-52 is $341.00, this hobby is exspensive, to bad I do not know where to get an IEC installed on my amp, I talked to a fellow member, He just bought used Krell 750mcx mono Blocks that the previous owner had the IEC's installed, he was never told where this was done, I asked, Krell say's they will not do it because of the machine work involved, and they do not have any 700c back plates in stock any more which would be a fix.

Hi Audiolabyrinth, The issue is that this hobby is not only expensive, the problem is that maybe you buy the connector, spend $341.00 and imagine if the result is not as you expected??That`s why I suggested before to match the wall outlet with the base metal of the original Krell amp connector?May be with a basic Furutech fpx CU ( $ 66.00) you could have a good result and avoid spending 341.00 in a AC male connector.I suggested that because you mentioned that the amp sounded better with the copper wall outlet made in mexico.I am of the idea of not touching the original cables of equipments.I only changed the connectors of a PAD musaeus power cord ,after having emailed Jim Aud, the founder of Purist Audio Design.He told me that these Furutech FI 11 N1 g will work good on the cable.So I did it.Anyway if you want to take the risk and put the connector just do it.Who knows may be it will sound wonderful. Anyway the general rule in Hi End audio follows an asymptotic curve :in order to get a tiny step forward in sound performance you have to spend a huge quantity of money.Unfortunately hehe!Hope this helps.Cheers!Raf

Hi rafael0054, I was considering putting the new Rhodium on the refrigerator when it gets here monday or tuesday, however, when I think about it, The krell will cook the crap out of it alot faster!, I will just suffer the sound of burn-in I suppose, do you believe this to be a good idea?
